Hi everyone, I have a problem with the package I am writing. I have some non-pascal source code which my package must load at compile or run time into a TStringList. But as there is nothing like a $PkgDir macro I don't know how to find the files at run time. Include files would be my only option at compile time which I don't like as they need at least a token, which means that every source line must be in quotes which makes it impossible to use syntax highlighting for the non-pascal code. Of course I could just put the source into my pascal code but that would be cumbersome, ugly and not easy to maintain. So as a last option I wanted to copy my non-pascal source files after compilation of the package to a known directory (the plattforms config dir for example). So I wrote a little console app to do that just to realize that I cannot add a program to my package. At the moment I am at a loss what to do now. Is my only option to call fpc myself in the 'after compilation step' of the package compilation to compile my copy tool and after that call the tool to copy the files?
